UCSD Medical Scholars Program

<p>I hope to gain acceptance into this program...are there any students who were accepted into the program who would be willing to share their take on the admissions process?</p>

<p>How many people are passed on to the interview stage? How are the interviews? Any advice at all for maximizing my chances of getting in? </p>

<p>I'm a high school senior so I think that the most I can do now is read up on medical milestones and concentrate my faculties on the UC app & Medical Scholars supplement. I've interned at labs the past few summers and have substantial leadership roles and a very great passion for medicine; any tips for expressing that favorably in the essay, and perhaps more importantly, the interview? I feel I lack a key anecdote that would demonstrate the source of my interest in medicine...
PLEASE feel free to message me privately if you would be amenable to conversing with me at length about Med S. admissions
Thank you very much</p>
